Live so that when the final summons comes you will leave something more behind you than an epitaph on a tombstone or an obituary in a newspaper.
It’s ironic, but until you can free those final monsters within the jungle of yourself, your life, your soul is up for grabs.
‘The Conversation’ was the first film I edited on a flatbed machine – a KEM editing machine. I’ve been using Final Cut or the AVID for 12 years now, so I was interested in looking at this film and seeing if I could tell if it had been edited the old way.
Last year in Germany at a town hall in Leipzig there was a game music concert played by the orchestra and some of the Final Fantasy scores were played. This year there is another concert scheduled in the same location, for game music.
Not many German keepers can say they’ve played in a Champions League final.
Governments usually end not with a bang but with a whimper, as the Conservatives learned in the 1990s. Support and authority erodes over time until there is a final collapse of support and pivotal electoral shift.
In seven books, I’ve written my fair share of baby epilogues. Pregnancies and births and even grandchildren have made an appearance in the final pages of my books.
‘The Vampire Diaries’ is a serialized drama. It deserved its final chapter.
My feelings, as the last ball travelled over the net, and as I realized that the final match was mine, I cannot describe. I felt that here was a prize for all the games I had ever played.
Of the judicial department of the Government, the Supreme Court is the head and representative, and to it must come for final decision all the great legal questions which may arise under the Constitution, the laws, or the treaties of the United States.
In every interview I have ever read or seen or taken part in, the final question in our future-oriented society is always, What next?
‘Frances Ha’ is the closest final product to what I had in my head of any movie I’ve made. I’m not entirely even sure why that is.
I was disappointed with ‘My Friend Pinto.’ Everyone put a lot of effort into it but the final product was something no one was ready for. The story was altered and a lot of scenes were edited. I got a lot of flak for my performance.
Winning the Pulitzer is wonderful and it’s an honor and I feel so humbled and so grateful, but I think that I’ll think of it very much as the final sort of final moment for this book and put it behind me along with the rest of the book, as I write more books.
A multicultural society does not reject the culture of the other but is prepared to listen, to see, to dialogue and, in the final analysis, to possibly accept the other’s culture without compromising its own.
Essentially, it is the director who is the creative head of a film. The final authority on all decisions lies with the director. That is how it should be. And then other team members can give their creative inputs.
At the World Cup, most teams changed their style when they played us and maybe were more defensive. In the final, we didn’t know if Holland were going to do the same, but the important thing was we beat them in the end.
I wrote a play once called ‘Lobby Hero,’ which I thought turned out very well, but there’s no final version of it. I published the one we produced, but there are seven other versions with different variations sitting in my desk at home.
In the last few years, the very idea of telling the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth is dredged up only as a final resort when the alternative options of deception, threat and bribery have all been exhausted.
Black people dominate sports in the United States. 20% of the population and 90% of the final four.
I will make the final decision on running for governor after my congressional term ends.
We’re competing against other great cities: Madrid, Rio de Janeiro, and Tokyo. That’s why it’s important that we all join together on the final path to Copenhagen. Having the support of President Obama is key.
The art of pictorial creation is so complicated – it is so astronomical in its possibilities of relation and combination that it would take an act of super-human concentration to explain the final realization.
There are no Rabbits in the north-west. This statement, far from final, is practically true today, but I saw plenty of Lynxes, and one cannot write of ducks without mentioning water.
Not until the final draft do I force myself to remember that I’m going to have to think about how it will affect other people.
You’re never out of the game until you’ve lost the final point.
What he has done for women is final: he gave to their service the best powers of his mind and the best years of his life. His death consecrates the gift: it can never lessen its value.
At the end of the day, the Irvine Co. is slowly being transformed. Our long-term goal is to transform what was once an agricultural company to a development company, and to that, the next, final step is to create a large real estate investment company.
The final conflict will be between the Communists and the ex-Communists.
I like to come up with lots of different sounds. So the final version of a song might have been 10 completely different songs before we finally got it right.
‘Play It Again Sam’s opening shot is the same as ‘Purple Rose’s final one: a close-up of a face, rapt in a movie house. I’ve certainly felt that in my life. I’ve been known to cry watching Gene Kelly.
There’s something about taking a film from concept to script, through production, and then to see the final thing happening in the edit phase. It’s almost like a miracle in the making.
The final objective is not to distribute the migrants among various European countries but to prevent them from entering Europe and from departing from Africa. We need to intervene in Africa. We need to have a Marshall Plan for Africa to improve living conditions in the countries of origin.
You know the thing that interests me about ‘Unsolved Mysteries?’ It’s because there are people out there, people who know something, who may have the one final clue.
Shakespeare will not make us better, and he will not make us worse, but he may teach us how to overhear ourselves when we talk to ourselves… he may teach us how to accept change in ourselves as in others, and perhaps even the final form of change.
After ‘The Orphanage’ and ‘The Impossible,’ ‘A Monster Calls’ is the perfect final chapter in a trilogy centred on the extraordinary strength of the mother-child bond.
My decision on this matter is as certain and final as death and the staggering New Deal taxes.
Sometimes I get the start of a story from a memory, an anecdote, but that gets lost and is usually unrecognizable in the final story.
My overall favourite player would be Iniesta. For his final ball, obviously, his skill, and his ability.
Sometimes you like the personal adventure implicit in the making of a film, and sometimes you like your part in a film, and sometimes you like the final result.
I’m into really terrible, trashy American horror films. I think the ‘Final Destination’ ‘sinquology’, to phrase it, is brilliant! It’s un-toppable in terms of how incredible it is.
To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul, to give it its final blow the coup de grace for the painter as well as for the picture.
As far as ‘Final Destination’ and its creator, Jeffrey Reddick, are concerned, whenever Jeffrey calls, because of our friendship, I have to listen.
Ups and downs will be happening; coming to the final and losing by a point or so should not matter.
This Olympics is almost a little sad. It is my final Olympics. There are a lot of good memories.
What we do at the end of every season – which is why it’s probably not the greatest idea to talk about things in the visitor’s locker room after the final game – we sit down and have real serious conversations with all of the senior people.
You may defeat me in a final vote, but you’ll never get me to quit.
Gadgets are usually the last thing I think about, and if there’s something new, I’ll get to the store for the final shipment of the first generation when it’s on sale. So I have last year’s stuff.
We are still confident as a team that we will make it through to the final Cup qualifying round.
The U.K. is one of the few places in the world that has final salary pensions.
The FA Cup final is such a fantastic final to play in. I played in the 1999 one at Wembley, and after having watched so many finals as a kid, to be able to make that long walk up from the dressing room to the pitch was fantastic.
I write where I can see things happen, and then things get glued together. I do have the final scene, but that really is an epilogue. It’s not part of the plot.
I do still have some of the experience from playing, but it’s been so long since I’ve been out in those quarters, semis, finals, the important final matches, just against the top players.
Manufacturing is more than just putting parts together. It’s coming up with ideas, testing principles and perfecting the engineering, as well as final assembly.
I was 14. I went to see a production of ‘Jacques Brel is Alive and Well and Living in Paris,’ and when they got to that final song, ‘If We Only Have Love,’ it was like the top of my head had blown off.
